How to adjust your wedding dress to your size?
Of has found your wedding dress,
congratulations! And now something is bothering you, the dress is way too big
for you, and you are swimming in it. Don't panic unless your dress is made to
measure; you will probably have a few minor adjustments to make. We explain the
procedure to follow right here.
Some
alterations to adjust your dress
When
you find your dress at the Dressing Club, we always inform you that the dresses
often require a bit of touch-up for them to adapt perfectly to your figure.
The vast majority of our wedding
dresses in the showroom are showroom and fitting models and have therefore
never been adjusted. Very often, we then have to do basic alterations on your
dress, namely:
·
Small point to
tighten at the shoulders
·
Tighten at the sides to adjust the size
·
Cut the hem according to your height on the day.
These are the touch-ups that we
do most often, but sometimes there is almost nothing to repeat. It is essential
to stretch the fabric well for an excellent result. You may also want to cut
sleeves or hollow out a neckline, and in this case, you will have to alter the
original model.
Depending on the model you
choose, there will be more or less work on your dress, but the main thing is
that you feel comfortable and maintained in your outfit!
When the dress is too big, it can
adjust to your body. We can take up to two sizes above yours. On the other
hand, when the dress is too small, there is often nothing to do because the
seam allowance and the fabric are insufficient to retouch. We can sometimes
find little tips but.
Prefer to find a model that
is too big rather than too far.
Make
alterations at the Dressing Club.
At
the Dressing Club, we offer an alteration service of between € 180 and € 300,
which is added to the price of the dress. The flat rate for basic touch-ups is
€ 200. We usually do it between 3-4 months before the wedding to have time to
do the touch-ups. And we welcome you from Tuesday to Friday from 9 a.m. to 5
p.m.
On the day of your fitting, we
advise you on the alterations we can do by helping you project yourself once
these are finished.
Then we set a date together for
your first touch-up appointment. Your retoucher will then place the pins to
adjust the dress and advise you on the fit. It is during the discussion that
you can also tell him about your desires for D-Day.
We then set up a second meeting
with you. You can try the altered dress again, and if it is adjusted, you can
take it away! On the other hand, if you wish to modify something further, we
will redo a pose of pins and give you an appointment for a third session.
Our partner for
emergency touch-ups:
For those who have found their
wedding dress a few months before their wedding, do not panic. You will still
have time to do your alterations. Unfortunately, however, our schedule, which
is often busy with alterations, does not always allow us to welcome you for an
appointment.
In this case, we always refer our
brides to our editing partner: Tilli. The principle is simple. You have to go
to their website and make an appointment online. Rangjah provides the best Pakistani Dresses online UK. A couturier
will then come to your home to do the pinning, take your measurements and see
with you the best way to retouch your dress so that it fits you like a glove.

Timing
level, it is better to do it at least one to two months before the big day to
avoid any stress and to be able to anticipate additional alterations. Do not
hesitate to contact customer service, which is very responsive, if you have any
questions.
Note that you can also use their
services for a simple classic touch-up on a t-shirt or pants. A professional can
then always come to advise you.
On the other hand, the Tilli
service is only possible in certain cities in France: Paris, Lyon, Marseille,
Bordeaux and Toulouse.
What to plan
for your touch-up appointment?
To
prepare well for your touch-up appointment, here are some tips that will come
in handy.
First, I advise you to provide
the appropriate lingerie in order to test the opacity of the dress, the
neckline, the open back, etc. You can opt, for the top, for a Back to Glam,
adhesive cups, nipple covers or nothing if you are comfortable.
For the bottom, you can opt for a
nude thong, seamless or a sheath to avoid showing the folds of classic
underwear.
Do some tests and see what works
best for you and what will be most comfortable for the whole day.
Then, if you need to adjust the
bottom of the dress by cutting a hem, you MUST have D-Day shoes. Indeed, your
retoucher will cut the hem exactly according to your height so that you do not
step on your dress and so that it is not too short. Rangjah provides the best Pakistani clothing brands in UK .Of
course, you can also tell your retoucher the desired height. On our side, we
recommend cutting at 0.5cm from the ground so that we only see the tip of your
shoes when you walk.
